THE P2TTSBUBG- DISPATCH, FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 25, 189L 2 v. nnd Xcgley. Tlio statement that Mavbr's Clerk Ostermaier was a canal date was empliatically denied by that gentleman yesterday. Inspector McAleese still leads the tare and apparently is looked upon with favor bv the entire Prison Uoard. It i expected that during the week to como Fcveral new name will appear, out the friends of the Inspector snj they do not have much fear ot any stronger opposition tbnn at present. The selection, resting largclv with the Judiciary, politics will not lie alfowed to become a factor In it. The choice will be made for worth alone, which makes it decidedly favorable for the In spector. County Commi'-sioner Woir was quotad vesterdav as having declared that the ab strat of the quarterly committee report, as published in The DisrATCii, is as entirely in correct. AVhen seen yesterday afternoon Commissioner Weir positively denied hav ing made anv such an assertion. o reliable information has yet been re ceived D the authorities as to the wherea bouts of the missing Fitzvimmons. The last story, to the effect that lie stopped over nightata farm house near JIemphi, Tenn., lias been Inllowed up by the police. But like all others it has as yet failed to develop nny very plausible features. The only thins in Its favor is the fact that Fitzslm mons is well acquainted with Jlesico and T:irion paits of outh .America, and would probably go South toward those countries. 3IRS. FITZSIMMONS GUILTY. The Jury's Verdict In the Second Degree A New Trial to lie Demanded Qeglnnlng of the Hearing In the Clarks-AA'yatt Case as Accoorles. It is in the province of the Court to sen tence Mrs. Lucy It. Fitzsimmons, wife of the fugitive, to as many as 12 years in the penitentiary. Her trial resulted yesterday in a verdict of guilty of murder in the sec ond dcgiee. "When court opened in the morning Judge Ewing charged the jury. He said Gilkin-f-on and Murphy had a right to be at the house, and that they did right in forcing their way in when Mrs. Filzsimmons tried to close the door. The fact for the jury to determine was what part Mrs. Fitzsimmons took, and was she acting in concert with Fitzsimmons? lie said the verdict, it seemed to him. must be cither flrst or second de gree. Counsel for the defense had asked lilm to charge that it could not be flrst de gree; this he would not do. Counsel for the prosecution had asked him to charge that It co-ild only be lirst degree; this was a matter for the jurv. Thcjurv retired shortly after 10 o'clock and at 1-I5 cinie back to the court room. Mrs. Fttz-immons faced them without show ing any emotion, nor was she affected m hen the fbreuan handed in the verdict of "Guilty of murder in the second degree." 4mon; the people about the court building who have watched the trial the verdict was generally approved. Mr. Marshall savs he will flle a motion for a new trial. He has several days in which to do this. His reasons for asking for an other tri.il he wouldn't state. THK CLAHKS-WYATT TKIAb BEGUX. The trial ol Charles 31. Claik, his wife, Emma Clark, and Cora AVyatt, the sister of Mrs. Clark, charged with being accessories after the fact to the murder of Detective Gilkmson, was beaun yesterday morning.

District Attorney llurleigh took no part in the case, he having been the counsel for the Claiks prior to his appointment. A large crowd was present, and an interest was lnanife-tecl equal alrao-t to that shown in the proceedings against Mrs. Fitzsimiuons. Mr. It-bb onened tne case. He explained what constituted "an accessory after the fact," and detailed the circumstances that led to the death of lilklnson. He refened to Fitzsimmons going to the house of the Clarks. remaining thei-e over Sunday; of the dres-ing ot the wound, his bcingfed and cared for. Mr. Itobb claimed the Clarks w ere aware of the murder and who had com mitted it, and were therefore guilty of being accessories after the fact. Detective I'. .1. Murphy was the first wit ness. Herelatod the story of the killing of Gilkin'-on. and told of his going to the Clark loue March 9 to And a stolen sewing ma chine. Mrs. Clark denied it was in the house, but upon a search being mide it was found In a bedroom. On March 19 ho again wenttotho Clark house to And Fitzsim mons, for whom he had a warrant, in con nection with the Schmidt robbery. Fitz bimmops was not there, and Mrs. Clark said hhethoneht the story ot the l-olibcry vs a fake. Mrs. Clark, ho said, remarked that Fitzsimmons could not come back to the house because he ow ed J50. A recess was then taken until the after noon. When court reconvened at 1 o'clock the examination of Murphy was continued. He exhibited the search warrants for Fitz simmons" house. They were made out on March 14, the date on which he learned Fitz simmons' name UNsrocEssrr i, l denti rrcATi.iv. Rosa llrow n was next placed on tho stand. She lived in the rear of Clark's place. She Saw Fitzsimmons when he roomed In Clark's liouse prior to March 2L On Minday, March 12, she saw a man at the window of Clark's house, but could not say if it was Fitzsim mons. Detective Murphy, recalled, identi fied a satchel as the one found at the head of Gilkinson when the latter fell dead. County Detective Ileltzhoovcr identified the same article as the one found in tho hol ler stump near ritzsinimons' house, and containing the fugitive's papers and stolen jew clry. John F. Schmidt identified tho jewelry as that stolen from him. Dr. Gladden, of Homestead, heard of the murder Saturday evening, March 21, and on the follow ing evening he saw a shadow tin the second story window at Clark's bouse. It looked as if omn one was dressing a wound on the shoulder or neck After Fitz Kimmonswas arretted that night he exam ined him and round a wound on his left shoulder. The witness was instrumental in having the house of Clark watched, thus leading to the arrest of Fitzsimmons. Mrs. J. 18. Hennlnc. who lives near the Clarks, heard footsteps about 4:30 o'clock Sunday morning following the murder, in fiont of Clark's "house. Charles Gasscll and Dr. Raker were called, but had not heard tho foot-teps. Constable tt. R. Colvin and Officer McAl litei related the story of the arrest of Fitz simmons, how he had been seen in Clark's houe, and chased and caught when he came out. ciiai:i,ie ci,ai:k Trxi,ixo iris story. Chailes M. Clark, one of the defendants, wa called for the defense. He testified that he was the hu-band of Mrs. Clark: that he 1 lived on Fourth avenue. Home-tead: that lie had known Ambrose G. Rudd (Fitzsirn Jiions) since January. 1P90. At that time tho latter came and rented a room from the wit ness, remaining until February 23, 101. Tho witness was a machinist and oil driller and employed at AVilmerding. He was seldom at home. He said "IJudd seemed to be a kind of peddler, as he old umbrellas and mats on the streets. As a rule he was not home oftener than twice a week. 1 never knew him bv the jiameof Fitzsimmons until 1 rend it In the IKipcrftaftei theimtrdcr. At S o'clock p. m. on Sunday, the day aiter the murder, he came to our hnusp and entered, as he had keys. I fii-tt knew of his presence bv hear ing a noise downstairs. We were ill up stairs at the time. I went to the head of the J-fcilrs and culled 'Who's tlicic" and some one answered 'Me, ,'udd." I took a lamp and went down. He had a brush and was brushing his clothes. I said, '.Mv God, what brings y-on here?' He said. I am" hungry, al most starved, and am shot. I said, My God. you have killed Gilkinson.' He re plied, 'For God's Mike, give me something to cat.' I said. -For iod's skc, go and give yourself tip.' Jiy wife came down and she said. 'For God's sake, go and give yourself tin.' He begged so hard for a bite to eat that I wrapped some bread and meat in a piece of liapcraiid gave it to him and to'.d him to go. I would not let him rat it in the house. He went out tho front door, and I did not see lilm again until I was called to identify him." The witness was stiil on the stand when Judse Ewing ordered an adjournment of court until this morning. Voting Against "Women. Gottleib Go'.der is home irom the German M. E. Conference in Cincinnati, where the vote on the question of woman's suffrage in the church was so oerhclmingly r.guinst the lair sex. Mr. Golder was elected a. lay delegate to tlw Cener.il Conference, w hich meets in Omaha. Xeb., next May, where the fiuestion will be voted on again. He said last night that while n majority of tho con ferences ii 111 be in favor of gi fug women a Vote, the required three-fourths vote will not be secured. A Mail Carrier Injnred. Thomas Scott, a mail carrier at the Union depot, in getting out of the way of a train yesterday morning, stepped in front of a shifting engine. lie was knocked down and seveiclyc.it and bruised.

FATAL1TYIN FOG, Seven Men Killed in a Collision on the Pittsburg and Western Eailroad Yesterday. TWELVE OTHERS BADLY INJURED. A Heavy Freight Runs Into the Eear of a Work Train Containing: Forty Repair laborers. THREE MEN IXSTAXTLT DECAPITATED. Engineer John Iftraffhton reaps for Life and Meets Sudden Death. The most horrible disaster that ever hap pened on the Pittsburg and Western Kail road occurred at 5:40 o'clock yesterday morning, near McKim station. As a result six men yvcre killed outright, one died a few hours later and a dozen were severely wounded. Two more of the injnred men, the physicians say, will not survive. The dead arc: JOHN HOrGHTON. engineer. JOK HIRKXISH, Hungarian, Xo.21. MATT GEUTESCH, Hungarian. Xo. 13. JOHN" WIXXKR. Hungarian, So. 1. JOHN OSSICK. Fin, Xo.3. JOHN" lilTI'.K. Italian, Xo. 47. JIM SALVO V, Italian boy, Xo. 99. A DlsrATCH reporter arrived at the scene of the disaster a few hours after it occurred, and from the trainmen learned the full par ticulars. The train on which the men were killed was a construc tion train. In addition to the regular quota of trainmen it carried be tween 30 and 40 laborers, who were em ployed in ballasting up the track. In leaving Xorth Se-.riekley, where the work men are quartered, it followed the first section of freight No. 5G. Uchindthem, only a few minutes later, was the second section of Xo. 3Cf heavily loaded with iron ore from Lake Superior. There were 20 cars in the second freight train and seven flats in the work train. HOW THE WRECK OCCURRED. "When near JIcKim station, on an up grade, the first section of Xo. 30 broke a coupling and parted, the rear end dropping slowly back until checked by the rear brakemen. A flagman was sent back just in time to prevent the work train from crashing into the first freight. Then a man was dispatched back to flag the second sec tion of Xo. 30, which was approaching probably at the rate of 20 miles an hour. It was an intensely foggy 'morning, and although long alter daylight, it was impos sible to see plainly more than 100 feet ahead. The flagman met the approaching train within 100 yards of where the yvreck occurred. Engineer F. H. "Willard imme diately reversed his engine, applied the air brakes and band, and leaped for his life. Charles Stewart, the fireman, also jumped from the engine, and a second later it plowed into a train of flats, reducing it to kindling wood and slaughtering and maiming its occupants. Engineer Hough ton, of the work train, saw the impending danger a few seconds before the crash, and jumped from, his engine to the siding which parallels the main track. He was instantly killed and buried beneath a mass of trucks and brolran timbers as high as the telegraph wires. Had the unfortunate man remained on his engine, or jumped off the opposite side, he would not have been injured. His fireman, Charles Bcatty, jumped ofi" to the right, and did not receive a scratch. THE VICTIMS CAUGHT BV THE CARS. It was an awful wreck. The flat cars were thrown together with such terrific force that they were reared up on end, dumping the poor victims between them. A number of the flats were so completely mashed up that it would be almost impossible to recog nize the fragments as parts of cars. The locomotive Xo. 8L attached to the last sec tion, after plunging into the work train, loft the track and went down a low embank ment into swampy- ground, burying itself in mud up to the axles. It remained upright, but was badly battered and broken. The work of clearing up tho wreck and re moving the dead anu wounded was soon begun, but with much difficulty. The Huns and Italians refused to touch the bodies of their dead comrades, and were so frightened that It was with much difficulty they were persuaded to assist in removing tho wounded. Messages were sent as soon as possible for medical assistance and an un dertakcr,and the wreck train and crew were dispatched to the scene. A number of the men were pinioned in betw ecn broken frag ments in such a manner that it was impossi ble to remove them at once. The screams of the uomided and dying men the survivors describe as heart-rending. Besides the dead a dozen men were seri ously wounded, and their agonizing groans struck terror into tho hearts of their super stitious and ignorant companions. General Manager Patton and Claim Agent Robinson wore notified of tho disaster soon alter it oc curred, and both took tho cai ly train for the scene. The wreck train soon arrived, also, and in a short time the bodies were all re covered. TERRIBLE MAXnMXR OK BODIES. The heads or three of the men wcro cut off and their bodies were mangled beyond recognition. Undertaker Huchaiian, of Kllwood, took charge of the dead, and for two hours could not find the head of onoof them. Whether the lcmains were put to gether pioperly nobody will ever know. Tho bodies were all l.ifd"out on a matting of straw on tho floor of a box car, and in this shape were taken to Ellwood. Xeat cloth-covered coffins were oidcred from this city, at the direction of Manager l'atton, and they arrived on the train at 5 o'clock. The boy, Jim Salvor, was not dead when taken out, and w ith the other wounded was started for this city. He died on tho way and his remains wore taken to the General Hospital. Lots were purchased in tho Slip pery Rock Cemetery, near Ellwood, wlioro live of the victims will bo buried to-day. The body of Engineer John HoughtOii was bi ought to Bennett station, where his widow and three children reside. His funeral will take place probably on Sunday, and will be conducted by the Brotherhood of Locomo tive Engineers, of which he was a member. Coroner McCain, of BeaVcr, was notified ot the accident and arrived n9 Ellwood in the atternoon. lie found thataJustlco of the Peace had taken charge or the Investi gation, and his dignity was greatly insulted. He immediately succeeded the Justice, and announced that be would hold the inquest at the Hotel Oliver, Ellwood, on Monday. AT THE ALLEGHENY HOSPITAL. Twelve of tho most seriously wounded men are at the Allegheny General Hospital. Of these Dr. Husolton, Medical Director of the 1'ittsburg and Western road, says two will probably die. The skulls or both are fractuicd. The others are wounded in va rious ways. Several have broken arms or limbs, while the injuries of others aie but slight. A number of tho other men aro" injured, but not sufficiently to cause their removal to the hospital. Several of them w ere walking about the wreck yes terday afternoon with bandaged heads and arms. Since the accident the Huns and Italians have rclused to work, and tho oflicials of the company fear they will have trouble with them. Engineer Willard, of tho last section, says that the lives of many of the men were saved after he saw the flagman. He says he blew tho whisleasloudand long as he could with out looing his own life. Wbilo the men could not see the engincapproaching through the heavy gray fog, they heard the alaira and leaped irom the flat cars. The engine was recrsed, the airbrakes applied and snnd was pouring on tho rails, but tho teel was wet from the fog and it was impossible to stop within the distancebctween the rear of the woik train and the point reached by the flagman. J. W. Robinson, Claim Agent of the com pany, who spent the entire day at the scene of the wreck, says that each of the 21 ears of tho last section or Xo. 3;, with their loads of iion ore, would w cigh 100,000 pounds, and from this a slight idea of the force of the collision can bo formed. The accident caused tho greatest excite ment among the employes of the company and tho acquaintances of Engineer Hough ton, who was well known and popular. AVhen tho train carrying the remains of the dead engineer arrived at Bennett, station lust cvoning, there were 1,000 people on the platform and about tho depot. The caskot was lifted from the baggage car door by the former neighbors of the dead railroad man and carried to his late home, where tho broken-hearted wife and childien waited in tears. WANT CHEAPEE BATES. LawrenccTillo Citizens "Will Petition for Reduced Car Fare. An indignation meeting will be hold tills evening at McCandless School, Eighteenth ward. The object will boto protest against the charges of tho Citizens' Traction Com pany. Many of the most Influential peoplo of that ward and thronghout Lawrenceville aro interested in tho meeting, and the pros pects aro that it will be large. The grievance of the citizens is that they aro obliged to pay 10 cent fare to tho Sharps burg bridge. This route is shorter than the trip on tho Tittsburg Traction line, where only 3 cents is charged and those who wish to go to tho Sharpsburg hi idge or near there claim that 10 cents for such accomodation is too great. At tho meeting this evening a formal protest ncainst this condition will be entered and a committee will be appointed to express the sentiment of tho meeting before tho officials of tho company. iienry uramm, a prominent citizen oi Lawrenceville. stated that he was at the head of the citizens' movement and antici pated a lavorable result. s The announcement that the Duqucspo line will reduce its faro to 3 cents caused consid erable talk yesterday. The officials do not caro to talk about it, and decline to deny tho story. Officials of tho Pittsburg Trac tion Company still insist they will meet any reduction made on the rival line. WILL FLIET KO M0EE. A Young Lady Who Kegrets "Tier Acquaint ance With a Defaulter. Julia Cunningham, the mysterious young woman who was arrested at Union station Tuesday night in company with A. W. Gille laud, the Philadolphian who was gotting away- Irom his creditors, was last night put on a Western train and started on her journey. AVhen arrested she had a limited ticket to Boise City, Idaho. Tho local officials supposed showas wanted with Gillo land at Philadelphia, and detained her until it was learned that she had only formed tho acquaintance of Gillcland on the train to Pittsburg. In the meantime the time limitation on tho ticket expired, and Super intendent Weir had great difficulty in getting an extension of the time. Finally, through the assistance of Passungcr Agent T. E. Watt, it was accomplished. The lady took the train last night after thnnking the local officials for their kind ness to her, but said she never expected to call on any of them again. The officials are still in the dark as to the young woman's business or knowledge of her life. HIS NAME NOT KNOWN. A Kail road Victim Supposed to Ho A. E. McGarvey. A man supposed to, bo A. E.

The Breach BetAveen the Federation and K. of L. Is Growing Wider. BOTH LIABLE TO GET A SETBACK. Wrought Iron Pipe Shipped to the South Faciflc Islands. MISCELLANEOUS INDUSTRIAL ITEMS Between the M. M. P. TJ., the American Federation of Labor and the Knights of Labor, theatrical managers of this city are kept in quite a stew just now. Last night word was circulated by members of the M. M. P. TJ. that the members of the orchestras in two' of the best houses in the city, which are not affiliated with the Knights of Labor, had already signed applications for membership in the M. M. P. TJ., which in turn is affiliated with tho American Fed eration of Labor. It was also given out that a plan is ma turing by which the K. of L. will capture the theatrical attaches in several houses where they are now connected with the Federation. The causes of this war have been explained in detail in Tiie DisrATCH within the past few days. The breach be tween the two organizations has widened considerably this week, and the fear now is that unless the truce is patched up the theat rical managers will get their heads together and dispense with the services of all the men connected with either organization. This course was strongly hinted at by a manager last night. RADICAL CHAHG"ES PROMISED. August ICreil, talking for the TI. M. P. TJ., said: "We will show some very radi cal changes among the orchestras within tho next few days. AVehave Just received the applications for membership from two orchestras, and before ton days havo elapsed we will have captured every or chestra in the city. AVo will do more than that. AVo will soon have all the flrst-class musicians who ore now in the K of I. with us, and you can say that next year the music at the Exposition will be furnished by the M. M. P. U. of Pittsburg." Mr. Kreilhadlusfleft Prof. Schwartz, of the Grand Oncra House, and the inference was that his was one of tho two orchestras referred to. Prof. Schwartz, when seen, said. "AVe aro at present in the Knights of Labor, but I believe a change will be made soon." From another source it was learned that the Alvln was the other one aimed at. President Tanner, of the theatrical at taches' organization, whoso scale Manager C. L. Davis had signed, was seen. He showed the scale, which includes a clause binding Mr. Davis to employ none but American Federation members in any part of the house. "Sow," said Mr. Tanner, "Mr. Davis will be compelled to employ our people. He signed a Knights of Labor musicians' scale, because the Knights of Labor people repre sented to Prof. Meyer that all the musicians of the city were in the Knights of Labor. He cannot comply with his agreement with us and retain Knights of Labor musicians. Are were very lenient with Mr. Davis, and made him a very reasonable scale. He is paying wages considerably above tho scale in al most every Instance, and I do not think wo will have any trouble -putting in a Knights of Labor orchestra." MANAGER DAATCS OUTSPOKEN. Manager Davis was spokon to last night relative to the effort to compol his musicians to join tho Federation. "They cannot do it," said he. 'It I want the musicians to go into the Federation they will go there. If I want them in the Knights of Labor they will stay there. I tell you, I am getting pretty nearly tired of this harangue. I have built this theater. The people are proud of it. So far as 1 know I am tho manager, and I propose to run it myself for C. L. Dais. If this in terference does notsoon ston I will not havo anything to do with cither organization and will bring men from places where intimida tion is unknown." AAV J. Dillon, representing the Federation, when seen, spoke as follows: "This ques tion has been agitated too much, and all I caro to say is. that the side that seems to be losing ground is the side that is responsible for its own defeat. Its earlleractlonain the matter, at a time when they thought thoy could got along without certain classes of attaches' have acted as boomerangs, and tho men who were injured are now making in roads on tho enemy." One of tho attaches, who claims he was discharged from the employ of a local theater because he Joined tho Federation, said: "If this controversy docs not soon end neither organization will amount to any thing." Master AVorkman Dempsoy is out of the city, and a statement from him was unavail able last night. There were some very broad hints thrown out by IC. of L. members tnat Dempsey know considerably more than he would caro to tell even if he had been home. Officials on both sides are watching tho movements of their oppo nents very closely, and fnrthor develop ments will bo looked for with great interest. No Cat in Plate Glass. Tho plate glass manufacturers adjourned a three dayB' session yesterday at the Ander son notel, after deciding that there should bo no cut in rates of American plate glass. Up until recently tho difference in price be tween American and Frenoh plate was 4J cents per square foot. The foreign makers made a cut of 3 cents, so that there was but a slight difference between the homo and foreign product. As a result of this cut a large order was sent from New York last week to a French factory. However, tho American trade does not fear that the for eign nrticle will ever bo the strong com petitor it was years ago. Treasurer Ford, of tho Pittsburg Plate Glass Company, said yesterday: "We are not alarmed about for eign competition. American glass Is even superior, but the old prejudice still hangs to some dealors. Our strongest competition is with new concerns who can cut on our rates by making an inferior quality that suits a certain class of trade who want plate, but are not particular as to its quality. Plato glass trado is quiet at present, nnd tnero is a stock on hand now larger than over befoie. An Englishman Getting Pointers Here. James T. Smith, of London, England, tho representative of a powerful syndicate there, and the President of the Otis Steel Company of Cleveland, who is stopping at tho Du quesne, inspected a ndmbur of iron nnd sttel plants yesterday in company with Charles A.Otis, T. Jopling, L. A. Roby, of the com pany, and Robert A. Bole, the local agent of the Xiles Tool AVorks and Morgan Engineer ing AVorks. The party visited the Carbon Iron AA'orks. which is making armor plate for cruiser So. 13 in connection with tho Otis Steel Company, Park Bros, and Jones & Laughlln's. The objector the American rep resentatives of the company is to show- Mr. Smith the improvements recently adopted in local mills, with a view of inducing him to consent to similar improvements at Cleve land. Mr. Smith, with native cautiousness, wnnts to seo how best an additional outlay or capital may be made. He expressed him self as well pleased with the equipments of mode of work in vogue in Pittsburg mills. To day ho will visit Braddock and Home stead. "Will rreservo a Tinworkers' List The agitation over tho alleged attempt on the part of ex-Congressman Uiedringhans to import tin plate workers is said to have caused that well-known manufacturer to abandon his plans. The list of names sc oured bv the Amalgamated Association wna a little too much for his argument that com petent men could not bo found, and it is thought he will not now attempt to bring over foreign workmen.

About a dozen manilla paper manufactur ers met at the Monnngahela Hotel yesterday and conferred relative to the condition of the trade. James Arkell, of Canajoharie, N. T., stated to a Dispatch reporter, during the afternoon, that the meeting was not called to enter into any combination or trust. "Wo hnve met," he said, "in conference on the question of prices and stock. It is a meeting of manilla paper manufacturers. AVe find the condition of the trade to be about the same as it was last year: probably it is a little better. The sole object of our meeting is to como to an understanding as to prices, as we do eaoh year." "Does the tariff affect yourtrade?" "So, us tar as our business is considered, we don't care whether we have a tariff or free trade. The only thing we have to pay duty on is chemicals, and they have been advanced. But that we don't care for cither, since the tariff is paid on the other side; we don't pay it. It is so much out of the pockets of the Chemical Trust, a body which stands to the chemical trade as the Tin Plate Trust does to that trade: and they make as much money. The Tin Plate Trust is the five largo AVelsh makers, who control the trade. I mot 'one of them re cently, and ho told mo the profits of the AVelsh makers average from S3 to 45 per cont. Some of these profits seem to me to be likely to find their way over here shortly.'1 SENDING PIPS TO HONOLULU. American Tube and Iron Company Gets a Slice or the South Pacific Trade. The American Tube and Iron Company, with headquarters in this city, is' engaged at present in filling n large order for Matheson Joint pipe for the Hawaiian Construction Company, at Honolulu. Tbo order consists of 7,600 feet or about a mile and a half of the pipe, and it is to be used,. In laying a water main from the reservoir nt Toarl City, on to the Peninsula. It will also be connected with an artesian well, so that residents of the Peninsula can always depend upon an abundant supply of water, whether rain water gives out or not It. AV. Carroll, tho local manager of the company, said yesterday: "In addition to this trade we are developing in the South Pacific, we have recently captured a large sllco of Southern business. The wrought iron pipe trade is getting to be of a wonder ful extent. Railroads no longer have a monopoly on oil transportation. Roads leading to the principal lake and sea ports are paralleled by lines of pipe which convey crude oil to mammoth refineries. The de velopment of now oil aud gas territory has led the way to a wider nnd more goneral use of large wrought Iron pipe." Tinned Plate Plants Ordered. Tho Leechburg Foundry and Machine Company has a contract for the construc tion of a tinned plate plant for AVnllace, Bunfleld & Co. The capacity will be 20 boxes a day, the output of two mills.

It is claimed for it that tho plates nre better cleaned and moro brilliant than when done by hand. It is also adapted for sheets for galvanizing purposes. The Employing Printers Give In, The printers employed in Job ofilces, whose proprietors have not signed the scale, will not bo at work after the 1st of October. The quostion between the printers and the em ployers is chiefly ono of hours. The scale calls for a nine hour-day at the present rate of wages, and the demand is generally re garded as fair. The Job office men are the only tradesmen now working ten hours. The employing printers have organized a union to withstand tho demand, out it is not strong. The President of tho union, Joseph Eichbaum, slgnod the scale yester day. Armer & Snchr have also signed it, and AV. G. Johnston & Co. wore reported as fa vorably considering it.

The Scranton delegates returned homo yesterday, the Boblnsonitcs arriving on their special In the forenoon, nnd the Dal zell men later in the doy. The former wore, of course, elated by their victory, while the latter, if defeated, were proud of their can didate and the impression he made on the delegates generally. The views of dele gates, expressed In the Interviews following, go to show that factional feeling has beon laid asldo, and that the old clubs of both sides and the new will work together for tho go"d of tho party. Collector Warmcastle said It was unfortu nate that the it old clubs had to be turned down with the so-called "mushrooms," but the committee had to draw the line some where. Stone, of McKeesport, the Kittan ning club and others might as well have claimed the point made by others. The re sult would havo been the snmo anyhow, as Kobinson had a malorlty of F4 of all, getting HI votes to Dalzell's 42 and Warren's 15. It was a matter of negligence on the part of the old clnbs that they had not registered beforo, but if these as well as tho new clubs had been admitted it would havo made no dlflorenco, as Robinson received a majority or&t overall with 141 votes to Dalzell's 42 and AVarren's 15. Ho said thnt these clubs would yet do good work; would become per manent, as they had not been organized solely to further'the Interests of a particular candidate. "Dalzell mado an excellent spcecn." said Mr. AA'armcastle. "and he came off with honors if not with victory. My observa tion shows me that tho result of the election will notjje unfavorable to the interests of the party, and that it will have no effect at all toward producing inharmonious feelings in the ranks." Mai or McDowell, of Sharon, said ho re garded Dalzell's speech as calculated to unite tho factions and ralso him in the esti mation of all Republicans. City Assessor Frank Case, a prominent Dalzell man, said that his friends would do as tho Congressman suggested in his speech, accept the result gracefully nnd turn In to work for Gregg and Morrison. Harrv Panl admits defeat butnot disgrace. He said' their candidato was an excellent one and made many friends by nis speech. President Holllday, of Common Council, thinks that althongh!thelr man was defeated the fight thoy made In his behalf will show what kind of metal there was In the people of this section. General Pearson said If Dalzell had beon defeated he had gained unmistakably In popularity. The excitement created by tho election tight would not dio out, and would be continued until the election. There was no bitterness in any qnarter to mar the har mony of the party. Prothonotary John Bradley said that the old time clubs as well as the now haa como to stay. He had talked with many delegates since, and they had expressed a determina tion to abide by the result, althongh it was obtained by gng law. He does not think there will bo any neutrality and that the contest will serve to put life into the cam paign. HOW BTJBKE WAS HOODOOED. It All Came Abont by Ills "Pittsburg- Double Going to Scranton. "Talking about the fight for the Secretary ship of the Republican League Clubs," said a delegate yesterday, "Jim Burko is n mighty flno fellow, but ho hadn't a chance; he was unmercifully hoodooed. Burko has a striking faco and is a good-looking young fellow whom to see once you would suppose would be to recognize ever afterward. But his hoodoo was at Scranton in the person of a woll-known young artist of Pittsburg, who resembles Burke so closoly that It Is hard to tell, some times, the 'other from which.' It so hap pened at Scranton. I don't know how often Burko was taken for tho artist, but If tho in tttr wns taken for Burke once, he was at least a dozen times. On ono occasion I was fircscnt when the DuBois delegation button loled the artist, and.the following colloquy took place: " 'AVcll, how's It going?' asked a delegate, "I believe it's going very well, replied Burke's double; 'I didn't see it stop. AVhat d'v'o mean?' "Oh, nothing. I Jnst wanted to say that yon have our votos solid.' "'I am not awuro I asked for your votes,' replied the artist. 'When I want them lor nny purposo I will let yon know. Mean while, I have no uso for them," and tho dele gation withdrew, prepared to plump for Randolph. "On another occasion Burke's hoodoo was accosted by another delegate: "It's all right, Burke. You'll get onr votes sure.' "I have'nointercst in this thine,' said tho artist, with rising indignation. 'Keep your votes for somebody who wants them. 'Was it any woiider Jim Burko failed to score?" Meeting of the Vacancies Committee. This afternoon the committee appointed by County Chairman Brennen'to fill the vacancies in the Democratic county ticket will meet at Mr. Brenuen's office to decide on the advisability of tho move. Mr. Bren nen was interview ed yesterday, but said he J could not tell what action would be taken. The only fight will bo on tho matter of put ting up a candidate for District Attorney. More Veteran Morrison Clnbs. Four Gregg and Morrison war veterans' clnbs have already beon organized, and by Saturday night it is expected there will bo 10 or 12. Major Denniston, who Is Chairman of the temporary central organization, re ceived notice yesterday that two clubs had boen organized in Allegheny, one in tho Thirty-first ward, Pittsburg, and one In a district comprising the Sixth, Seventh, Eighth and Eleventh wnrds, Pittsburg. Al legheny will havo three or four more In a couplo of days, the East End will have a couple and all the surrounding boroughs are rapidly organizing. Xo club will bo recog nized or allowed to send delegates to the meeting that is to organize a permanent central club until it has at loast 25 members. Those already organized have double that nnmbor of members. The meeting of the delegates from the clubs will probably be called for 'next AVednesday evening, as, under n resolution passed nt the last meet-lng.-Chnlrman Denniston has authority to call a meeting whenever he is officially noti fied that at least five clubs have elected del egates. Betting on McKlnlcy at Dayton. Colonel B. n. Mercer, of Philadelphia, was at the Seventh Avenue last evening on a re turn trip through the AVest. Speaking of tho Ohio campaign, Colonel Mercer thinks McKlnley made a mistake In consenting to a dual debate. He says that Campbell will be afforded an opportunity of addressing an andlcnco he could never get of himself. At Dayton n prominent man was offering 100 to 30 on Mclvinlev. and that was in Campbell's stronghold. He thinks, from his observa tion, that the tariff man will win. THE C0MPAHY ST0EE CASE. Proceedings Have Been Begun Against the Wrong Company at Hnrrlsbnrg. HAimisnnno.Sept. St Special. Argument was heard this morning before Attorney General Hensel in tho case asking the Rays town Branch Coal Company, of Bedford county, to show cause why its chartershould not be forfeited on the ground that it wa3 running a company store. Hon. John Cessna appeared for the company, and called James Dennithorn. who carries on tho store. That, gentleman denied that he was an official or stockholder of the company, or in any way Identified with it. He showed the charter of the company taken out by the United Colliery Company, In Xew Jersey.before the passage of the act under which these pro ceedings were begun. AV. C. Householder, the complainant, stated that he know noth ing of the Eastern company. Ha claimed, however, that since Juno last the Raystown Company had carried on the store business In Bedford county. It appeared from the evidence that pro ceedings bad bctn besrnn against the wrong company, and the Attorney General re served his decision. Outside expression is very pronounced on both this case and the law in question, and is to the effect that all old company stores nre running as usual and that the law will bo a dead letter. A Battle "With Alaska Indians. Pobtlakd, Ore., Sept. 2t. A letter received to-day from Juneau, Alnska, under tlate of September 12, says: Intelligence has just reached here from tho Upper Yukon that a band of hostile Chilcats attacked a party of two whites and five Indians, and several were killed.
